The problem of robustness for truncated sequential tests of two simple hypotheses is considered for the model of heterogeneous independent observations under distortions. An approach for performance characteristics calculation is proposed. Asymptotic analysis of robustness is performed. A family of robustified sequential tests is constructed. Numerical examples illustrate the theoretical results.

The present paper develops a goodness of fit statistic for the linear regression models fitted by the shrinkage type estimators. A family of double k-class estimators is considered as a shrinkage estimator which encompasses several estimators as its particular case. The covariance matrix of error term is assumed to be a non-identity matrix under two situationsknown and unknown. The goodness of fit statistics based on the idea of coefficient of determination in multiple linear regression model is proposed for the family of double k-class estimators. Its first and second order moments up to the first order of approximation are derived and finite sample properties are studied using the Monte-Carlo simulation.

The model of conditionally binomial nonlinear regression time series with discrete regressors is considered. A new frequencies-based estimator (FBE) of explicit form is constructed for this model. FBE is shown to be consistent, asymptotically normal, asymptotically effective, and to have less restrictive uniqueness assumptions w. r. t. the classical MLE. A fast recursive algorithm is constructed for FBE re-computation under model extension. Asymptotically optimal Wald test and forecasting statistic based on FBE are developed. Computer experiments on simulated data are performed for FBE.

We consider delayed sums of the type Sn+an − Sn where an is possibly a positive integer valued random variable satisfying certain conditions and Sn is the sum of independent random variables Xn with distribution functions Fn ∈ {G1, G2}. We study the limiting behavior of the delayed sums and prove laws of the iterated logarithm of Chover type. These results extend the results in Vasudeva and Divanji (1992) and Chen (2008).

We expand the quartic variations in time and the quadratic variations in space of the solution to a stochastic partial differential equation with piecewise constant coefficients. Both expansions allow us to deduce an estimation method of the parameters appearing in the equation.
